No, but I think it is a good feature request. Maybe it should also be the default behavior. The question is if it should also be optional behavior. Taken to the extreme MailMate could allow you to define exactly what messages should be shown together with the opened message, but that may be overkill. It could for example show all messages with the same correspondents (and automatically select the opened message among these). -- Benny
